Osmosisch posted:No worries. For what it's worth the game is entirely completable and plenty fun (imo) without engaging with the gacha at all. Also, the region after the first generic fantasy Europe one is a massive improvement, especially if you're into Chinese themes. Might be worth revisiting. I actually like metaprog for the same reason I like the other stuff we've talked about. At least when it's not taken too far stares balefully at UnderMine Genshin I guess I'll have to reinstall, if the region after Fantasy Europe #627 is more interesting. We'll see how much the gacha annoys me by being shoved in my face Ciaphas fucked around with this message at 14:33 on Dec 22, 2020 |

I also just remembered that Hardspace: Shipbreaker exists, and there's a new ship and toys; and if ever there was a game about making numbers go up... or down... it's one about Crippling Debt  In any case I think that's got me covered! At least until wandering attention span makes me want something new aga- ooh, shiny

Vadun posted:I'm looking for a dungeoncrawl that isn't turn based or real time with pause. Hear me out here: FFXIV has procedurally generated dungeons, and you can jump into them very quickly after starting the game (like starting at level 10 or 15 I think) They’re actually some of the fastest leveling content too, although they will completely ensmoothen your brain if you play them long enough

I stopped playing last sometime shortly before Rabid Rajang and Barmy Brachydios were released, so I suspect by now I've missed quite a few hunts The monkey can gently caress off, but Raging Brachy is one of the best fights in the game, especially solo.

I'm burnt out from work and now have a vacation so I'm looking for some fun, really well-paced games to play, a heavy emphasis on cutscenes would be nice to. A few weeks ago I played MGS 3 and that was so perfect. The gameplay is awesome, but I also like that it has lots of long cutscenes and codec calls so I can take a break and smoke weed while my girlfriend hears the dialogue and makes fun of it. Not looking for anything big or open world, just quick blasts of fun and campiness that feel fresh for a good 6 to 20 hours. Resident Evil games definitely match what I'm looking for as well. I got a PC (and emulators) and a ps4. I probably am going to buy ff7 remake soon (I think that might be along the lines of what I'm looking for) but more stuff to check out and revisit would be awesome.

With lockdowns and bad weather, we've exhausted everything else to do. So: anyone have recommendations for 2-player, 2-controller co-op or friendly competition games for PC and a single screen? (If I had more money, I'd go for a second-hand wii u and new super mario bros / mario cart, but I don't, so a decent PC will have to do).

Are there any story-focused jrpg-type games that also have 3 player co-op? Something like the tales of games would be perfect, except not a tales of game Also english VA and cutscenes that are actual cutscenes instead of visual novel "here is a character body/portrait and text" type dialogue are very important Note: the story does not have to be good. In fact, a bad story is arguably a selling point

Stardew Valley just got a patch that added split screen Also look into Nucleus Co-op, its a program that aims to add split screen to games that don't have it by running two instances of the game at once. Obviously your mileage may vary but there's a chance that a game is on the list of playable games that you want to play SolidSnakesBandana fucked around with this message at 22:52 on Dec 23, 2020 |

Someone already beat me to EDF 5, but it owns Renegade Ops on steam is a split screen top down shootemup but you drive cards with guns and complete missions for two people, has a little story and cool art Helldivers on steam is a split screen (really everyone shares the same screenspace) top down shootemup as cartoony space marines fighting different types of aliens on randomly generated missions. Missions and difficulty can range from chill and easy to ball buster hard. Includes lots of cool special call downs like big chaingun mechs and plenty to friendly fire.

GodspeedSphere posted:Looking for a game I can play one handed. Not because I'm a sex pervert, but because I have a toddler that can't sleep unless he has skin to skin contact and god loving forbid I move my arm for one second. Currently I'm doing Slay the Spire and getting to the point where I have to do more math than I prefer. Slower strategic games are preferred because I'm too fired for schmups and poo poo like that. old post, but if Etrian Odyssey-style games are your jam at all, Starcrawlers can be played basically entirely with a mouse. on that note, are there any other turn-based, ideally party based, dungeon crawlers similar to Starcrawlers/Etrian Odyssey. I know Grimrock exists, but it's not turn-based and seems more focused on the puzzley bits than the making cool combos and killing lots of mans. i picked up some game called Vaporum that seems like it's going to be similar to that, except not even party based.

PMush Perfect posted:HBS Battletech is also just a fantastic game in general. I have heard it's difficult and I am a wuss about difficulty. I loved XCOM but I had zero compunction about savescumming when a favorite soldier died or I missed a 90% shot that I really needed to make. Can you similarly savescum difficult situations in Battletech? Some games make you restart the whole level or something.

You have to restart the level, but it is, or can be with the right settings, a ton more forgiving than xcom. I think you can even turn off perma death for your pilots? If you are into tactical games at all I'm sure you won't regret it.

This was also my insane moon logic justification for putting small lasers on a catapult. "oh, an orion spawned inside our lance while the rest of the enemy group spawned in the distance? Okay pull a 180 DFA... and your baby small laser cooked off their ammo after you stomped open their gun, worth the leg damage every time." Every time I was about to make my missile bots more traditional glass mass fire builds, I found myself very glad I didn't just due to my terrible luck with such things. Normally the game behaves itself about that sort of thing, at least.

Battletech has customizable options regarding difficulty. So feel free to decrease the amount of salvage needed build a mech or make enemies not as powerful. In my opinion, having over 200 hours, just skip the campaign. The DLC fleshes out all the fun mechanics and are on sale often. You’re a manager of a mercenary company. It might take a bit in the beginning to get used to how the battle system works. But soon you’ll be glad you can play a ‘serious’ game with just a mouse.

Can someone recommend me a game in which the dual-wielding feels super good & unique compared to sword & shield/2-handed? Preferably melee-based. Any genre is OK, PC only please. A bad example is AC Valhalla, even though there's a skill giving you the ability to dual wield big weapons, you literally attack alternatively when dual wielding, unless if you dual wield the same weapons only. srulz fucked around with this message at 09:37 on Dec 26, 2020 |

Do any of the options make pilots less critically valuable? IMHO, the skills they gained like Bulwark were so critical that if they died, I had might as well reload because it didn't matter how good my mech was. Maybe I just don't like HBS games. I've been kinda down on all 3 I've played despite being a fan of both franchises.
